I officially started my Ph.D. program this week at UVa. It has been great to get back in to the lab, but very different from Dr. Wiley's lab. There is definitely a learning curve, as I have little background in cardiology. I know that is hard to believe, but when it comes to the specifics it is true. My first rotation is looking at atherosclerosis, or plaque build up, in the heart. I feel like the "scared" first-year. However, I think I am finally on the cusp of learning, and becoming more confident in the lab.
I cannot wait for this weekend. While I have a lot of to accomplish, I am looking forward to finding the gym and getting some rest. Hopefully I will meet some people this weekend (maybe even somebody who would like to see the Minion movie with me!).
That's all for now!
